    Mixer or blender

    To make homemade milkshake recipes you will need a good blender, powerful enough to puree all fruits and especially frozen fruits.

    It is most often recommended to use a blender which is both more convenient and more powerful to make the shake. But if you don't have one then I advise you to use a hand blender.

    Blender

    This the must have in a kitchen to make milkshakes, smoothies and juices. The blender is generally composed of a base and a pitcher with blades in the bottom that are used to blend the food.

    Hand blender

    Mostly used in pastry to make emulsions for creams and ganaches. This one-handed blender is very powerful and can also be used to make milkshake recipes if you don't have a blender.

    Frequently asked questions about milkshake

    What is the difference between a milkshake and a smoothie?

    The difference between the milkshake and the smoothie is in its composition, the first is much creamier because it is composed mainly of cream while the second contains more fruit.

    How to make a smooth strawberry milkshake?

    For a smooth milkshake, use the right amount of ice cream and you can also use some of the frozen fruit for a thicker texture.

    How to make a strawberry milkshake without a blender?

    You can do this without a blender, just puree the fruit and place it in a shaker or container with a lid and shake vigorously for a good minute to get a smooth mixture.

    Is strawberry milkshake good for you?

    The milkshake has a good source of calcium through milk and cream. And the fresh fruits bring vitamin C essential for a better immune system function.
